LeiLei, Where did they state that? I think they may have stated that they wouldn't do it directly after release. But i highly doubt they would have said that. (i was working out of their office for a month this year)
Andreas... Cant you just buy is a second time for like 20c, and gift the bundle... ?
Yea I would've liked to gift Torchlight separately as well since I already own it on Steam. Picked it up even though I still have barely touched some of the games from previous bundles. Oh well, love these bundles, gotta see which ones have controller support and try setting up the Steam TV thang!
Yeah. I'm sick of buying duplicates of games I already own on steam but yet i'm not allowed to gift it or redeem it in any way. I think its shocking. If I buy a boxset or bundle in a shop that has a game I already have at least I can give it to someone else or sell it. anyhoo, rant over...
The good thing about these pay what you want bundles is that if it has games I already own I can chose to deduct what I think that game is worth from the amount I pay. So in this pack I deduct what i would pay for Torchlight and dustforce. They already have my money so I think its justified. Some bundles in the past only have one game I don't own, so I only pay for that game. But I always pay more than the average.
I realise that the money is distributed to each dev equally. So maybe its not a great solution. But hey, i'm not a made of money and I hate buy dupes. Maybe they should introduce sliders to say how much you'd like each game to recieve also.

i think if you hit the dropdown next to the developer contribution slider you can specify who gets what
